The upper ends of the facings are prefer- =ably connected by a seam Pi which slants downwardly into the inside'of the pocket, and the lower ends of the facings are connected preferably by a seam 15, extending downwardly into the inside of the pocket. to ex-' This construction causes the facin tend downwardly and inwardly into the pocket for convenience of the wearer in insex-ting and withdrawing his hand. The in -ner longitudinal forward edges of said facings between their ends are free of attachjment to the side walls of the pocket. These ;forward edges extend up and down.
